Computer with hall.dll+ntoskrnl.exe BSODS like crazy (BF3 + SWTOR)

[no00wa]

Been having these problems for a while now, recently replaced a videocard because that clearly was one source of these BSODS. Still one card in there that doesn't overclock like a normal 6950 should (and needs too much voltage for super mild core OCs), but i don't think it has anything to do with the BSODS.

This is just getting out of hand, been playing with OCs for a while till i started getting a lot of trouble with it. After a while i "gave up" and tried everything at stock and slowly increasing speeds, one thing at a time. Now im getting BSODs with super mild OC's/No OC's (Videocards stock, CPU at 103.0x42 while it can run at 100x48 and sometimes i run it even at stock) and they come and go randomly. this ONLY happens in games and can happen after 2 mins or after 2 hours, completely random.

I'm starting to think there's just something completely different wrong with my computer and this is very frustrating, especially since im in computers myself. Could someone have a look at these files pretty please and see if there's anything out of the ordinary?

Me, myself, suspects the motherboard is at fault since BCLK speeds of even 104mhz or 103.5 give BSODS like its christmas time.

Unfortunately DMP files dont give that level of detail. These are all hardware related of course, and my normal reaction would be to say reset everything to stock, but you seem to have a good grasp of it.

I do notice a large number of "unusual" drivers. One of these may be throwing the hware BSOD. I doubt it but it cant help to check.

To that end I would run driver verifier.

I'd suggest that you first backup your stuff and then make sure you've got access to another computer so you can contact us if problems arise. Then make a System Restore point (so you can restore the system using the Vista/Win7 Startup Repair feature).

In Windows 7 you can make a Startup Repair disk by going to Start....All Programs...Maintenance...Create a System Repair Disc - with Windows Vista you'll have to use your installation disk or the "Repair your computer" option at the top of the Safe Mode menu .

Then, here's the procedure:
- Go to Start and type in "verifier" (without the quotes) and press Enter
- Select "Create custom settings (for code developers)" and click "Next"
- Select "Select individual settings from a full list" and click "Next"
- Select everything EXCEPT FOR "Low Resource Simulation" and click "Next"
- Select "Select driver names from a list" and click "Next"
Then select all drivers NOT provided by Microsoft and click "Next"
- Select "Finish" on the next page.

Reboot the system and wait for it to crash to the Blue Screen. Continue to use your system normally, and if you know what causes the crash, do that repeatedly. The objective here is to get the system to crash because Driver Verifier is stressing the drivers out. If it doesn't crash for you, then let it run for at least 36 hours of continuous operation (an estimate on my part).

If you can't get into Windows because it crashes too soon, try it in Safe Mode.
If you can't get into Safe Mode, try using System Restore from your installation DVD to set the system back to the previous restore point that you created.

Thanks for the quick reply!

I would say im pretty resourceful, at least someone with a little knowledge (or goodluck with my education haha) but this is baffling me.

Anyways, did as you said andddddd (almost didn't make a restore disk, so glad i did ) it crashes INTO Windows. Since i had "no GUI boot" on, i couldn't boot into safe mode and had to restore it straight away .

It crashes every single time booting into windows, couldn't find anything with automagic repair but restored successfully. Created atleast 4 new dumps but unfortunately the restore threw 3 (and a lot of others) of them away?

Hope this helps:



Edit; this appears to be Daemon Tools / Sata settings for my Blu-Ray burner but i'll wait till i hear from you!

This one is Related to dtsoftbus01.sys Virtual Bus Driver from DT Soft Ltd;. I would remove it to test.

I've deleted the drivers/program from Daemon tools, made a new restore point and tried the procedure again.

So far, no problems (after 12 hours which i find "enough" to test for, for now) so any other ideas that i might try out?

Edit: Just rebooted my computer and got 2 Blue screens right away, seems to be MSI afterburner but i kind of need that program to test? Not right now but it's been running stable all day yesterday at stock speeds. 1 day doesn't say much though, had that before. Maybe i will delete it for the time being but i've included the files so you can have a peek!

These were Related to RTCore64.sys MSI Afterburner from Micro-Star Int'l Co. Ltd. You only need this (i believe) if you are overclocking). iwould remove it.
